The earnings call presented a mix of positive and negative aspects. There were strong signs of financial improvement and successful core deposit growth, as well as important progress in the merger with The First. However, there were also challenges, including a decline in mortgage division income, an increase in criticized loans, and a decrease in adjusted noninterest income.
Company Guidance
In the third quarter of 2024, Renasant Corporation reported earnings of $72.5 million or $1.18 per diluted share, which included a $39 million after-tax gain from the sale of its insurance agency and $9.5 million in after-tax merger and conversion expenses. Excluding these items, adjusted earnings were $43 million or $0.70 per diluted share. Net interest income rose by $6 million from the previous quarter, driven by increased loan yields and proceeds from a capital raise, while traditional deposits grew by over $285 million, keeping noninterest-bearing deposits flat. Deposit costs only increased by 4 basis points compared to 12 in the prior quarter. The company also achieved a 3 basis point increase in adjusted net interest margin to 3.32%. However, income from the mortgage division fell by $1.3 million due to a decrease in the gain on sale margin and pipeline fallout. Noninterest expenses, excluding merger costs, decreased by $2.2 million to $110.7 million. The provision for credit losses on loans was $1.2 million, with net charge-offs of $703,000, maintaining the ACL at 1.59% of total loans. Despite an increase in criticized loans, asset quality was deemed adequately reserved, and the adjusted efficiency ratio decreased by 198 basis points, reflecting improved financial performance.
Strong Core Deposit Growth
